Shipping items back to India?

[treasures_of_great_maryland]

Beware: There is something called "Transfer of Residence", so if you are returning back to India for good, you dont have to pay the custom duty for your belongings.

""""Indian Customs STOLE my precious antiques and for the rest item, they charges heavy Custom Duty"""""

Indian Customs dont have any information about this "Transfer of Residence" on their web site, because 100 if not thousands of agents and corrupt Custom House employes want to make money off of it.

As per Indian Shipping rules, they have permission to open any package ONLY if they find anything suspicious in the scanner, but they will not only steal your items, but also trap you for the rest of the items and make you come 100 times to the custom house, so finally you bow down and pay anything they want under the table.

India CUSTOM HOUSE = THIEF'S

Where can I report this or post it on the internet so others are cautious.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Transfer of Residence is known to even a peon working at Indian Customs Offices at all the ports, Intl Airports and the FPOs of India.

Do not put allegations on Indian Customs Houses before having a complete information about the custom clearance procedures and the Indian laws.

If you bring a Television or a Refrigerator or a Laptop, and if you present an original bill of purchase to Indian Customs, then they will release it without asking for any duty.

But in case of collectibles (precious antiques, as you like to call them), the custom department will levy a duty. Because, there is no guarantee that you will keep those collectibles locked in your cupboard forever. There are chances that you may sell them in India immediately or after a year or after 10 years. Hence, for such items, you must pay a duty.

All are aware of these things. No need to post anywhere. Only you didn't know that your country's laws are equally intelligent.
